Green Bay has found its quarterback-driven answer. Jordan Love threw for 276 yards against Dallas and produced a career-high 159 yards while under pressure, with Matthew Golden and Christian Watson stretching the field. The defense also pressured Dak Prescott 21 times without Micah Parsons. The Packers are winning because Love and the front can both take over a game now.
The Packers' score moved up after a 23-13 Week 6 win, as gains in Recent Performance and Defense Strength outweighed declines in QB Stability.
Green Bay is becoming a Jordan Love passing offense backed by a pressure defense. Love is winning even when the pocket is messy, while Matthew Golden and Christian Watson are stretching coverage on opposite sides. The front pressured Dak Prescott 21 times without Micah Parsons. The run game can come back later. Right now, Love and the pass rush are driving the Packers.
Green Bay's pressure point is no longer just whether Micah Parsons can create pressure. The Packers led Minnesota 22-10 and then gave up 29 unanswered points as the offense turned it over and the defense lost control of the finish. Jordan Love and the defense have to stay connected once a game swings.
Pick the winner.
Green Bay owns one of the tougher remaining roads in the league because Chicago Bears, Houston Texans and Detroit Lions form the hardest part of it. PFM has the schedule No. 9 with an opponent average of 80.6 and 6 games against current top-10 teams. The road is not difficult from start to finish, but the stretch around Chicago Bears, Houston Texans and Detroit Lions leaves little room for an off week.
Toughest remaining opponent: 
Chicago Bears at 85.3 PFM.
Shared profile: Defense and Roster Strength.
Green Bay builds its defense around coverage support behind the rush, while Houston gets to a similar place through front-four pressure. That means Green Bay can make the quarterback hold the ball long enough for the rush to arrive, while Houston can rush four and still force the quarterback off schedule. Green Bay holds the coaching edge because the staff can change the call without abandoning the structure that keeps the offense on schedule.
Detroit remains the NFC North benchmark, but Chicago's 59-point opener and Minnesota's comeback changed the immediate pressure around Green Bay. The Packers cannot count on Jacobs or Parsons to stabilize the opening stretch, so Love and the active front have to keep pace while those absences remain.
Badge ended: Big-Play Threat, High Octane.
See the current Green Bay Packers depth chart across offense, defense and special teams.
Javon Hargrave and Warren Brinson remain on injured reserve, while Jordon Riley is listed as injured on PFM's current depth chart. Green Bay needs another defensive tackle who can play meaningful snaps without leaving the front dependent on an injury-hit rotation.
Green Bay's defense has slipped, and the current outside corners are Keisean Nixon and Brandon Cisse. The Packers need another high-end cover player who can hold up against No. 1 receivers and stabilize the back end.
Jordan Morgan and Anthony Belton currently start at tackle, while the live roster lists only four tackles. Green Bay needs more depth and competition at a premium protection position.
